On his last day in Pokhara, Fred is woken up by Kim & Geoff and they go for breakfast. He takes along some mushrooms which he has made up in an omelette. This leads to a very different sort of day including an afternoon meal with a Nepalese family.

"I am using my room as a sort of headquarters for the day, directing operations as the mushrooms take their weird effects. There is no word-imagery that can convey the feeling you get after eating them."Follow this rather unusual day on the Daily Diary page.
